- Description
- The USGS requests a magnetic survey of an area near Pasco in south-central Washington for the purpose of further understanding the geological framework of the area. The USGS requires a state-of-the-art airborne magnetometer with a sensitivity of 0.1 nT or better preferably mounted in a tail-stinger. The aircraft shall be equipped with recording radar altimeter, barometric altimeter, digital camera, and differential GPS with a positioning accuracy better than 15 feet (4.5 meters). All aircraft data shall be recorded at 0.1 second intervals or better. Also required is a base station magnetometer with a sensitivity of 0.2 nT or better with a GPS unit. The base station data and its GPS data shall be recorded at 1 second intervals or better. All equipment shall be calibrated according to manufacturer's specifications and all data shall be calibrated and corrected for any system response, drift, and aircraft noise. The contractor shall furnish all labor, materials, facilities, and an aircraft capable of slow climbs and descents. A pre-planned draped flight surface shall be required and a description of the method used shall be included in the proposal. The contractor shall provide digitally recorded and processed data. An example of recently flown data shall be submitted with each contractor's quotation. The USGS is in search of small business firms who are able to perform the above mentioned services. Small business firms who feel they can furnish the required services or its functional equivalent (based on criteria specified herein) are invited to submit in writing an affirmative response to this announcement.
